The organizers of Farrah Abraham‘s ill-fated “celebrity” boxing match didn’t have much luck getting the Backdoor Teen Mom to fight, but they’re not giving up on their quest to have a Teen Mom star get in their ring!
Damon Feldman, the man behind Celebrity Boxing, announced on Thursday that Teen Mom 2 dad Javi Marroquin has signed on to duke it out in the ring with a “celebrity” who has yet to be determined. (Please, reality TV gods, let one of Kail Lowry‘s other baby daddies– Jo Rivera or Chris Lopez— sign on to be his opponent. A Battle of Baby Daddies would be Must See TV!)
Javi’s fight is scheduled to take place in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on February 16, 2019. In an interview with Radar Online, Javi stated that the boxing match will be raising money for a good cause.
“We are going to look for a military charity,” Javi told Radar.
In terms of an opponent, Javi told the site, “We are going to open it up to the public.”
After Javi announced his boxing match on his Instagram, plenty of fans suggested Javi box another ‘Teen Mom 2’ dad– such as Adam Lind or Nathan Griffith.
Leah Messer‘s ex-husband Jeremy Calvert has already offered to step into the ring with Javi.

Others were hoping that Javi and Kail would finally get in the ring and punch out their frustrations with each other.
“Kail is gonna be the first person to sign up,” someone wrote in the post’s comment section.
“I vote for Kail to knock his punk ass out!” one person suggested.
This is not Javi’s first time working with the Celebrity Boxing team. He provided commentary during the fight that took place last Saturday between reality TV stars Nicole “Hoopz” Alexander and Natalie DiDonato.

Javi has got to be the thirstiest Teen Mom Dad in the entire franchise. He’ll do anything for attention…I’m shocked he hasn’t been selling those Fit Tummy Tea’s on IG.
Brittany!!!
Doesn’t one have to first be a celebrity in order to fight in a celebrity boxing match? Only those of us who watch this dumpster fire of a show would MAYBE recognize Javi if we tripped over him.
Lol I ALWAYS think I see people from the cast out on the street since we see them so often just looking like regular people as opposed to flashy celebrities. & then I realize none of them have any reason to visit my little Canadian city (I guess Justin Bieber comes here often enough though!) haha.
Stretching that 15 minutes of fame.
Go away Javi, you’re not special.
Why is this a thing?
I just want to go on record to say I had this idea of Teen Mom Dads boxing awhile ago and I should get a finders fee lol
It’s like when Greg Brady and Screech and Danny Partridge all fought.
I just want to see Nathan and David duke it out.
Hoopz won of course!
Yay! I knew she would win.
When did Javi become such a little girl?
Who won Hoop’s fight?
Fame whore…
Have Kail fight Javi. She would knock him out.
So who won the last fight? Hoops or Natalie? Btw the 2nd pic and caption is hilarious!
Have Janelle’s husband David fight Javi. He always talks so tough. Make him put his money where his mouth is….
I hope he gets knocked tf out. Can’t stand his thirsty ass
